Shimada rose to prominence as deputy director of the USTA, the space development organization founded in 2065. He was widely respected in political circles for his considerable talent and ambition, though he didn't exactly hide his arrogance or tendency to throw his weight around. Fans and colleagues alike remember him as someone who knew how to command a room—and someone who loved a good steak.
His career came to a tragic end when an accident destroyed the Moonbase where he was stationed, killing him along with the facility. It's one of those "what if" moments in space exploration history that still gets discussed.
